For centuries, the belief in Lord Hanuman’s immortality has been a source of strength and devotion for countless hearts. Revered as the guardian of dharma, Hanuman is said to roam the Earth, watching over the faithful and intervening in times of need. Some incidents, though seemingly ordinary, carry a deeper meaning for those who believe. Four such stories have emerged, leaving many in awe of what they see as the enduring presence of the divine.
For devotees, Hanuman is not a distant figure of mythology but a living force, ever-watchful and ever-protective. His promise of eternal service to Lord Ram and his unwavering love for humanity continue to inspire and comfort millions. These tales are not just about miraculous events; they are about the unshakeable connection between the divine and the human, a bond that transcends time and space.
1. A Visitor in the Courtroom
In January 2025, during a high-stakes hearing of the Gyanvapi case in Varanasi, a monkey entered the courtroom. Amid the tense atmosphere, this uninvited guest climbed onto the judge’s chair, leafed through files, and calmly observed the proceedings. While some dismissed it as a mere coincidence, others were deeply moved, believing that this was no ordinary monkey. For them, it was Hanuman himself, silently reminding all that justice and faith must go hand in hand. The incident touched a chord with many, sparking conversations about the unseen ways the divine intervenes in human affairs, especially in moments of spiritual and societal importance.
2. Blessings in the Ram Mandir
A year earlier, in 2024, as devotees celebrated the grand inauguration of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya, a remarkable event unfolded. A monkey entered the temple’s sanctum sanctorum, where the idol of Ram Lalla had been installed. Witnesses watched in awe as the monkey approached the idol, sat for a moment as if in reverence, and then quietly left. To the devotees present, this was not just an animal’s stray visit. It was a divine blessing, a sign that Hanuman himself had come to pay his respects to his beloved Ram. The moment became a symbol of faith, filling hearts with gratitude and reaffirming the bond between Lord Ram and his eternal devotee.
3. A Miracle at Hanuman Garhi
In 1998, at the Hanuman Garhi Temple in Ayodhya, a bomb plot was foiled in the most unexpected way. A monkey was spotted near the bomb’s detonator, pulling out its wires and rendering the explosive harmless. The incident, which could have been a tragedy, instead became a story of miraculous intervention. Devotees were convinced that it was Hanuman himself who had acted to save lives and protect the temple dedicated to him. The story spread far and wide, strengthening the belief that the divine protector never abandons his devotees.
4. The Guardian of the Babri Masjid Dome
In 1990, during the tumultuous Ram Janmabhoomi movement, thousands of karsevaks gathered in Ayodhya, determined to hoist saffron flags atop the Babri Masjid. Amid this charged moment, a monkey was seen perched on the central dome, guarding the flags as they were raised. For those present, this was no ordinary sight. It felt as if Hanuman himself stood watch, ensuring that the mission of devotion and dedication remained protected. The image of that solitary monkey atop the dome became a powerful memory for those involved, a reminder of faith in the midst of historic change
Hanuman’s Promise to the Faithful
These four incidents, separated by decades but connected by a thread of divine intervention, are more than stories for those who believe—they are living proof of Hanuman’s presence. Whether it’s a courtroom, a temple, a historic movement, or a moment of crisis, these events remind us that faith has a way of manifesting in ways we least expect.
